    While out hunting for wave 4 animated deluxe figures, I was quite surprised to discover a Voyager Blitzwing sittin on the shelves at WalMart. I hit up several local WalMarts last night, but this was the only one that had anything new. Lets hope this wasn't just a random mix up, and these will start popping up near everyone soon!

    Cool. Here's hoping there's not a month+ delay with this Voyager here like there was with the last ones.

    Argh... having to go out searching for this one is going to suck. One of the WMs around me just barely got their Wave 3 Animated Deluxes in and the other one around me seems to have cleared out most (if not all) of their TF figures to make room for the new Star Wars figures. >_< '

    Let's hope all those Bulkheads and Megatrons at my local stores can hurry up and sell then. I had to go out of state to find Prime and Grimlock, seriously though, that means that ALL the Voyagers that Hasbro has officially announced are out now. I suppose we should be seeing Wreck-Gar or Skywarp sometime soon then?
    At this rate Shockwave/Longarm Prime will be in stores by next month.
